A 3407 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to designating the first Friday in February as the New York statewide school day to help people in need

This bill designates the first Friday in February as a mandatory holiday for all New York public schools, named "New York statewide school day to help people in need." It requires schools to close on this date and includes a provision ensuring the holiday does not count as a reduction in instructional days for state funding calculations. Public schools across New York State are directly affected, as they must observe this day as a holiday without impacting their annual instructional day requirements. The bill creates a new annual school holiday with specific administrative adjustments for funding purposes.
